Sales Transaction Overview

Sales general ledger transactions are created each time a sales invoice is processed, customer payment is entered, deposit is recorded, or a sales journal is posted. These general ledger transactions are stored in a temporary sales transaction file until they are posted.

Creating Transactions

Review Sales Journal Entry to create sales transactions from a journal rather than a standard sales document process.

Review Displaying Unposted Sales Transactions to view the financial transactions that have not been posted.

Posting Transactions

Customer history, inventory history, and general ledger values are updated when the transactions are posted. History totals are only altered by transactions being created and posted. These transactions can be viewed by right-clicking on customer, inventory, or general ledger history totals. Note that customer, inventory, and general ledger history reports will not reflect transactions that have not been posted.  Review Posting Sales Transactions for more details on the posting step to update the financial totals and history.
